Hi all,
I need some help & advice with my diff swap please (gen2 3.0) I'm going from 4.1 to 4.3 ratio after my rear diff packed in
Rear diff was a piece of cake, front diff is not
My old front diff (see pic below) has a spline (?) with a bearing.
This is the other bit of the transfer box:
The new front diffm off a hilux pickup, (but seller assured me it was a straight swap) has an oil seal and looks different, and it wont fit with the "old" transfer box.
So it's now not the straight swoop I was hoping for.
The guy i bought the diff off is posting out the shaft he removed, but said it will then be permanently engaged (but not powered until i press the button on the selector in the truck) but i'd also need to fit free wheeling hubs?
Can someone explain this all to me? i think i understand, but would like to clarify it.
Cheers
James
